Lionel Messi has been preparing for the new La Liga season by enjoying a relaxing time with his huge pet dog in his garden.
The 31-year-old was granted an extended break from Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde following his participation at the World Cup for Argentina.
And with the majority of his team-mates taking part in Barca’s pre-season tour of the US, Messi has been honing in on his skills with his hulking Dogue de Bordeaux.
